🐣 Chick Ordering 2025 – What You Need to Know! 🐓

Spring is right around the corner, and that means it’s time to start planning for your new flock! Whether you’re a seasoned chicken keeper or bringing home chicks for the first time, getting your orders in early is more important than ever this year. Availability is limited, and popular breeds tend to sell out quickly—so don’t wait!

📅 Place Your Chick Order Soon!

Due to the way we’re ordering chicks this year, some breeds may be unavailable or in short supply. We recommend placing your order as soon as possible to increase your chances of getting exactly what you want.

✅ Minimum Order Requirement: There is a 5-chick minimum per breed this year, so plan accordingly!

✅ Pick-Up Reminder: Once your chicks arrive, we’ll call you—all orders must be picked up by 5:00 PM that day.

✅ Pre-Payment Encouraged: To make pick-up quick and easy, we ask that you pre-pay for your chicks in advance. Give us a call to take care of payment at your convenience!

🥚 Basic Chick Care – Be Ready for Your New Arrivals!

Bringing home chicks is an exciting experience, but proper preparation is key! Here are the essentials for happy, healthy chicks:

🔹 Warm Brooder Setup: Chicks need a heat source! A heat lamp or brooder plate should keep the area 90-95°F for the first week, then decrease by 5°F per week until they’re fully feathered.

🔹 Fresh Water & Quality Feed: Provide clean, fresh water at all times and start them on a high-quality chick starter feed for proper growth.

🔹 Bedding & Space: Use pine shavings for bedding and ensure at least ½ square foot per chick for comfort.

🔹 Watch for Health Issues: Keep an eye out for pasty butt, weak chicks, or signs of illness. A clean, warm environment helps prevent common problems.
